The social psychologist Howard Leavanthal in the 1960s, he wanted to persuade students at Yale University to take a tetanus shot. He divided students into several group and gave the booklet. Some of them get the high fear version, which shows colored photos, victims, and etc and others got low fear version. Right after experiment, students who got high fear version seemed like to get a shot more positively. However, mere 3 percent had actually gone to the health center to get a shot. The reason is that in the booklet there was no "STICKINESS" so students forgot about the booklet's information.
